Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 124 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £206,000 sits 79.1% above the 2007 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 45.4% below the postcode norm.
